I've never understood most of the English movies. Matrix lies in the top ten(The Sixth Sense leads it) of my ununderstandable movies. Can anyone explain to me the theme and story and idea of the Matrix movies?

You don't know what it is but it's there, like a splinter in your mind, driving you mad, driving you to me. But what is it? The Matrix is everywhere, it's all around us, here even in this room. You can see it out your window, or on your television. You feel it when you go to work, or go to church or pay your taxes. It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth.
You take the blue pill and the story ends. You wake in your bed and you believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill and you stay in PhysicsForums and I show you how deep the worm-hole goes.

Gokul, you're killing me! But that is the story.Gokul43201 said:Man make AI. Then man treat AI like sh**. AI pi$$ed off. Fight man. Man losing, AI winning. Man get bright...no, dark idea. AI need sunlight for energy so switch off sunlight. Man make sky black. AI more mad. AI kick butt anyway. Then AI use chemical reaction in man for energy. Make giant field where man be raised and energy from man harvested. But man die if have to live like cattle. And AI die if man die. So AI make man think everything hunky dory. AI make Matrix. Matrix like WalMart. Man in Matrix go numb with possibility. Now man be happy (or sad) and make lot of energy for AI. So AI happy.
Meanwhile some man escape during man-AI war and hide in bottom of dirty hole. This man know way to go in and out of WalMart...umm, Matrix. This man know that no rules in WalMart. Must not think flat-panel TV cost $2.99, must know ! One day in WalMart man find One-man buying flat-panel TV for $0.99. Man think : "This man the One." Rest of story about fuzzy economic - with jiujitsu - and omniprescent security guard-turned-shoplifter. In end, One-Man find only way out of problem : make deal with AI. "You close down WalMart; man give big money for flat-panel TV". AI happy. Man happy. One-Man become great martyr, like other famous great martyr. The End.

Chound, if you watch the Matrix (if it is in the uncut American version) the entire explanation is given, basically as Gokul explained, well except the part about Walmart and the flat-panel tv, that part I didn't know.

The main theme of the Matrix movies is the concept of reality versus illusion. The movies explore the idea that the world we perceive as real may actually be a simulation created by advanced technology.
The story follows the journey of a computer programmer named Neo who discovers the truth about the Matrix and joins a group of rebels fighting against the machines that control it. The story is filled with action, philosophical discussions, and plot twists as Neo and his allies try to uncover the truth and free humanity from the Matrix.
The idea behind the Matrix movies is a combination of science fiction, philosophy, and social commentary. It explores themes of reality, perception, free will, and the human condition in a world controlled by technology.
The main characters in the Matrix movies are Neo, Morpheus, Trinity, and Agent Smith. Neo is the protagonist and the chosen one who has the potential to overthrow the Matrix. Morpheus is the captain of the rebel ship and serves as Neo's mentor. Trinity is a skilled fighter and Neo's love interest. Agent Smith is the main antagonist, a program within the Matrix whose sole purpose is to eliminate any threats to the system.
The Matrix movies challenge our perception of reality by presenting the idea that the world we believe to be real is actually a simulation. It raises questions about the nature of reality, the influence of technology on our perception, and the control of those in power over our lives. It invites viewers to question their own beliefs and consider the idea that our reality may not be as concrete as we think.
